Facility spotlight

Swiss AviationSoftware Ltd (Swiss-AS) is a 100% subsidiary of Swiss International Air Lines and thereby embedded in the Lufthansa Group, one of the biggest airline groups in the world.

The company was founded in 2004, but the history of its product AMOS goes back to the year 1989 when the foundations for the software solution had been laid. In 1992, the system was sold for the first time and sales have increased in double digits ever since. With the spin-off from its mother company the team has been given the opportunity to fully concentrate on its core business to successfully develop market and sell the one product called “AMOS”.

Swiss-AS positions itself not as a pure software house, but as a company tightly linked to airline business. Being in touch with active aircraft maintenance on a daily basis and therefore able to capture MRO trends at a very early stage, Swiss AviationSoftware unites over 25 years of IT experience with profound MRO expertise and offers its customers a functionally unsurpassed and technologically state-of-the-art maintenance system.

Our long experience, uncompromising pursuit for quality and safety, and our commitment to equip the Swiss-AS customers with a state-of-the art solution are pillars which steer the development of the system as well as our service delivery.

AMOS

AMOS is a comprehensive, fully-integrated software package that successfully manages the maintenance, engineering and logistics requirements of modern airlines and MRO providers by fulfilling demanding airworthiness standards.

The key differentiators that make AMOS stand out from competition are the system´s high degree of integration and functional depth coupled with ease of use.

The scope of AMOS available today covers the business requirements of

airlines of all size and type from start-ups to tier-one organisations

maintenance organisations working for specific airlines

independent MRO providers

while being suitable for all aircraft types (including New-Generation aircraft, fixed- and rotary-wing aircraft).

AMOS is completely written in JAVA, fully web-enabled and hardware-independent. In addition, Swiss-AS offers its customers a full package of services ranging from initial requirement studies, process analysis, through onsite-support, user training, data migration, audits to system customizations, interface programming, 24/7 support, etc.

Customers

To date, over 140 customers from all over the world steer their maintenance activities with AMOS, which makes AMOS one of the industry-leading MRO software solutions worldwide.

The growing “AMOS community” ranges from pure operators, major charter, regional and low cost carriers up to large airline groups and MRO providers – a proof that AMOS is fit for any environment, regardless of size or geographical origin. The fact that no AMOS customer has ever replaced AMOS by another system speaks for itself.

The solid customer base actively contributes to the continuous development of the product and a valuable external network and comprehensive knowledge database could be established through close collaboration with the customers.
